The game

Trickster-p, Lugano (CH)

Exploring the potential of games as art, Trickster-p creates more than “mere” performances. Following the success of Eutopia (staged at Rotondes in 2024), the Swiss company presents The game, a participatory and intergenerational project that questions the structures and economic dynamics of contemporary society.

It really is simpler than you think: Imagine you are part of a group, you own a cow, and you have decisions to make. Do you want to put it in production or keep it free on the pasture? Now, throw gold bars into the equation. How do they influence your actions? The game requires skill and strategy, instinct and vision. But as it unfolds, are the choices truly yours, or are you being played by the system?
